Violet (Meghann Fahy) is a single mother who meets up with Henry (Brandon Sklenar) for their first date after chatting online for the past 3 months. However, soon into their romantic dinner, Violet begins receiving airdrops from someone within the restaurant instructing her to kill her date or else her son Toby (Jacob Robinson), who's at home with Violet's sister, will be killed. A decent game of cat-and-mouse from producer Michael Bay. Unfortunately, the film is watered down to a PG-13 to "appeal" to a wider audience. However, be prepared as most of the film takes places within the restaurant and the table itself shared by Violet and Henry so there isn't much change of scenery. Also, the script plays it safe and is fairly predictable. Violet's backstory works in terms of how she's dealing with the present situation but it's easy, safe, and didn't have as much of an impact on at least me as the writer's were probably intending to. There's 2 reveals in the final act where the first one was more "meh" than anything else while the second was obvious. Not a film that's needed to be seen on the big screen but I saw worse movies this past weekend. 6/10
